Intimate health includes sexual and reproductive health, sexual activity, sexuality, gender, and reproductive justice. The contributors vulnerably engage subjects including: parent-child, partner, patient-provider, and larger societal discourse and communication about sexuality education, HIV, family planning, purity pledges, (in)fertility, breastfeeding, and Black maternal health, sexting, boundary setting, consent, border justice, trauma, contraception, and menstruation, among others. Featuring both new research and vulnerable reflections on the research process, Communicating Intimate Health showcases the potential of communication scholarship to engage intimately with intimate topics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eTable of Content\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Communicating Intimate Health: From the Bedroom to the Doctor’s Office\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Valerie Rubinsky \u0026amp; Angela Cooke-Jackson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 1: Absence as a Theme of Intimate Health Communication\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Sweet Nothings: A Journey of (Gay) Sex without Condoms \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy Andrew Spieldenner \u0026amp; Nic Flores\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: “Why Don’t All Parents Talk About This Stuff:” Informational, Emotional, and Cultural Barriers to Meaningful Parent-Child Conversations About Sex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy Amanda Holman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: “The Sex Talk was Taboo… So was Wearing a Tampon:” Sexual and Menstrual Health Conversations among Young Latina and Latinx Women and Gender Minorities\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy Ashley Aragón and Angela Cooke-Jackson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Intimate Conversations about Sex and Sexuality: Lessons Learned from Studying Purity Pledges\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy Jimmie Manning\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Intimate Communication Guidelines for Transformative Sexual Education\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy Angela Cooke-Jackson, Taylor McMahon, and Kavita Shah \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: The (S)lack of Queer Healthcare in Appalachia \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy Katy A.
